In contemporary literary studies, a theme is<span> the central topic a text treats. </span>Themes<span>can be divided into two categories: a work's thematic concept is what readers "think the work is about" and its thematic statement being "what the work says about the subject".</span>
The answer is a gerund (verbal ending in -ing that functions as a noun)
One way to demonstrate academic integrity is to give credence and acknowledgement to the sources of your information.
For example:
You wrote a definition of a term. And you found that definition in a book authored by somebody. On you paper, you either write "According to the novel written by author, TERM is defined as..."
For example:
You are tasked to define the word "plagiarism".
To demonstrate academic integrity, you define plagiarism like this:
According to wikipedia, Plagiarism is <span>the "wrongful appropriation" and "stealing and publication" of another author's "language, thoughts, ideas, or expressions" and the representation of them as one's own original work.
Note that you have stated your source.
You can then add your own input and thought about the word. Like this:
I believe that plagiarism is an act of a lazy person. A person who pretends to be smart but in reality is just a parasite.

<span>The Salt March </span><span> was an act of refusal led by Mohandas Gandhi to </span>protest British rule in India.
By the way it was in India.
Hope i helped!
